Chapter 270: Jeju House
Although Zhu Qing had already explained that Wu Zhi would be cautious when he went south, and the Shen family would also help, Wen Xian was still a little worried.
The south is a difficult bone to gnaw, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, where there are more people competing for it.
But it is impossible to give up because of the difficulty, and can only let Wu Zhi toss first to see what he can toss.
Zhu Qing saw that Wen Xian was a little anxious, and couldn't help but comfort: "Although Doctor Wen is relaxed, General Wuzhi can break into the capital alone, and he can retreat with his whole body, which can prove that he is not an ordinary person." ”
Although he was seriously injured when he came back from the capital, his life was saved, and he got what he wanted, which is victory.
No matter how difficult it is in the Jiangnan area, it is always easier than in the capital. He is confident that Wuzhi will win and there will be no other problems.
Wen Xian sighed and said, "I hope that's the case, I don't want to lose a general." ”
is still a general with affection and righteousness.
However, no matter what she thought, the people had already gone, and she couldn't stop them.
She had to deal with the affairs of the north as soon as possible, and then she could go to the south to support Wuzhi.
But she can't let the north go, at least, she has to follow another city before she can go to the south with confidence.
However, plans have not kept up with the changes. Before Wen Xian could go to find Wu Zhong, news came from Wu Zhong's side, saying that Jeju Mansion had won without a fight.
They have settled in Jeju and have placed their own people on patrol.
Wen Xian was very surprised, and then read the letter below, which roughly clarified the situation.
It turned out that after Wu Zhong led the samurai army to the outside of Jeju City, he was still preparing to attack Jeju City according to the dispatch of Minbei Prefecture.
But before they could do so, the prefect of Jeju and the generals of the garrison army left the city and respectfully welcomed them in.
And said that they were willing to follow the empress, and the Jeju government was willing to submit to the empress and swear allegiance to the empress.
Wu Zhong didn't figure out the situation, let alone whether they really surrendered or fake.
On the one hand, we cautiously tried to deal with them, and on the other hand, we sent people to investigate the specific situation.
After figuring out the situation, he knew that this was true, and then he dared to send the news back to Wen Xian.
Wen Xian raised her eyes and said to Jiang Chen: "What does Young Master Jiang think of this?" ”
If you surrender for no reason, there must be something she doesn't know.
After all, she was not confident enough to think that people were obeying her, so she submitted to her.
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps, the prefect of Jeju Mansion and the generals of the defending army are the same as Guanping Mansion, and they are all people who know the times. ”
Guanping Mansion was recovered without a single soldier, and other prefectures and cities were not unavoidable.
He paused and added, "Besides, Madame built a factory to benefit the people, and it may be impossible for the Jeju government to do the same." ”
The people are rich, and it is good to be the prefect. Being an official with ease, no one wants to go into hard mode.
What's more, Guanpyeong has already tried it, and it's not impossible for them to do this in Jeju Mansion.
"That makes sense." Wen Xian nodded and said, "Right now, the poison in your body has been resolved, and you have learned a lot from Zhu Qing." If you are asked to take someone to Jeju to complete the construction of a factory and open a store, I wonder if it can be completed? ”
Jeju and the city further north are coastal cities. She wants to use all the sets in Guanping Mansion to make full use of sea resources.
Where the crops are barren, it is time to find other ways out, which is also a kind of backup guarantee for the imperial court.
Although Jiang Chen is not a businessman, he has been in charge of the Jiang family for two years. These things should not be difficult for him.
After all, if it is all up to Zhu Qing to do this alone, when it is Jeju's turn, I am afraid that it will already be winter.
If you don't go to sea after the sea freezes in winter, even if the factory is built, it can't be put into use, and you can't see the results immediately.
Jiang Chen hurriedly got up and arched his hand: "But according to Madame's orders, Jiang will definitely do his best to complete the task." ”
His poison has been cured, and he is no longer the sick and weak person who coughs in three steps, coughs and wheezes in five steps.
Although the body foundation damaged by poisoning in the past still needs to be recuperated. But he still wished that he could be reused, lest the Jiang family be abandoned by the new dynasty.
If you want to keep the status of the Jiang family, you can only firmly keep Wen Xian's thigh now. Otherwise, the Jiang family will not be able to support Xiao Chuyi in the future.
"That's very good." Wen Xian was pleased, "Then Jeju Mansion, please ask Young Master Jiang." ”
The situation in Northern Fujian Mansion is special, and she can't leave for the time being, but she can't let Jiang Chen fight alone.
Therefore, she transferred Bai Rose and Wu Junlan and asked them to deal with the affairs of Jeju Mansion with Jiang Chen.
Wu Junlan is okay, she has long planned to charge into battle. For going to Jeju Prefecture, I was eager to try it and looked forward to it.
But White Rose is different, although she has been much more bold lately, she is still a timid and weak little white flower.
Therefore, Wen Xian arranged two special forces for each of them, a personal secret guard, and Bai Rose followed her on the road to Jeju Mansion with peace of mind.
Actually, Wen Xian still has something to say.
That is, Wu Zhong investigated a news that Wen Zhan waved his army south to continue to recover the cities for her shortly after announcing that he would send her twenty cities.
If the results of the investigation are correct, after Wu Zhong recovers another city, he will be able to meet Wen Zhan's large army.
In other words, when they met, the whole north would belong to hers.
Wen Xian guessed that this was also the reason why the Jeju prefect and the generals of the defending army were so happy to surrender.
Not only that, but she also guessed that the next city would also be like Jeju Mansion without a fight and directly surrender.
After all, even if they could hold on to confronting Wu Zhong, they wouldn't be able to confront the Iron Cavalry army of Wen War.
If you cooperate with Toucheng, you can still leave a good impression and continue to shine in your original position.
Of course, this matter is just Wu Zhong's speculation. Wen Zhan didn't send her a letter, and she didn't want to reveal so much.
But she believes that it is true.
Therefore, she planned to go south directly to find Wuzhi to join after dealing with it in Northern Fujian.
After all, Wen Zhan is here, so she just leaves it to Wen Zhan, and she doesn't need to make a special trip to the north.
And after Zhu Qing finished doing the things on the side of Northern Fujian, he went directly to the last coastal city in the north.
As for Jiang Chen's side, after finishing the affairs of Jeju Prefecture, he can also follow to the south and start building the southern city.
Xu is not worried that Wen Xian will stay in these war-torn places for too long, and he is not worried that she will be in danger.
Things were almost done on the side of Minbei Mansion, and when he was about to go south, Wen Zhan rushed to the outside of Minbei Mansion with his iron cavalry army.
Smoke and dust billowed and the sound of neat iron horses came from far and near, and the defenders of the city were like facing a great enemy. hurriedly signaled the people to enter the city, closed the city gate, and hurriedly reported to Wen Xian.
